Question

A family buys 4 airline tickets online. The family buys travel insurance that costs $19 per ticket. The total cost is $752. Let x represent the price of one ticket. What is the price of one ticket?

Answer 1

The price of the ticket is $169.

Travel insurance

$19 per ticket

Total cost

$752

x = price of the ticket

Equation for the total cost

752 = 4(x+19)

x + 19 = 752/4

x + 19 = 188

x = 188 - 19

x = $169
